💚Blackall 50km💚 What a way to end a long marathon season. As I was nearing the end of this training block I was managing a few niggles, and one of the kids managed to bring a vomiting bug home 1 week before the race 🫠 So safe to say I was more than ready to get this race done
As you can see from the pics, it was wet out there. Heaps of mud made some sections a lot more challenging, and my hip and knees really copped it.
Really proud to get this type of race distance done, and to experience the magic that is Mapleton National Park.
My beautiful white Lone Peaks got an absolute hammering out there, but you just can’t beat a wide toe box. 50km and the feet are completely fine.

Our initial consultations are 60 minutes long. Why? Because there is so much more to it than ‘where does it hurt.’
We want to find the why.
We want to know how your feet interact with the ground.
We want to get a baseline strength assessment
We want to know what shoes you wear on those tootsies.
(And yes I have about as much fun during consultations as I did putting this video together)

How cool are the new Bunnings Warehouse shoe charms! Out of four mystery charms, we pulled 2 hoodies, one bucket and the surprise Bunnings snag!
Since we don’t use Crocs for our kiddos feet, we opt to put charms on their Vivobarefoot Australia & NZ ultra bloom instead! They are a little fiddly to get on, but they fit well!!

Okay we need to talk about this.
Shoe fit is something we ENDLESSLY talk about in the clinic.
Usually, we pull in the insole out of the shoe, stand on it and see if the toes all fit, or if they fall off the edge.
But this image, this is a podiatrists education heaven.
You cannot deny the fact that this not only is uncomfortable, but is going to be impacting the function of the foot.
A squished foot is an unhappy foot. Bunions, interdigital neuroma, intermetatarsal bursitis, it’s pick your poison. All of these things could develop with long term use of narrow footwear.

I was talking to someone about this the other day, how when kids are brought up around exercise and fitness being a oart of the weekly routine, rather than a ‘chore’ then it becomes an enjoyment.

Our kids have been with us in the pram as soon as they were able to, joining in at parkrun, and local running events. Now, when we plan out our race calendar, we plan our races, plus the events that the kids want to be a part of.
